Heres mine, its a 3' by 4' top using 1/4" plate, I would have liked thicker but the price was right. Plenty of room underneath for my feet. Its 34" from the floor the the top, I made the legs adjustable cause my shop floor is badly out of level. The box tubing is 1- 1/2" .095. I can take measurements in detail if you like. I tiggd the whole thing, figured it would be good practice since I was just learning...it was definitely! Mike

Mine isn't done yet. Of course my stuff always waits till last, paying customers come first in this business. It won't be anything fancy just a functional table, I'm thinking of salvaging a table that's been given to me and updating it a bit with a new top and a coat of fresh paint.

I would like to duplicate your design and make a similar table for my shop. I too, am just learning to TIG and need a sit down place to weld. You did a beautiful job from what I can see..... (I have the same floor problem, nothing level)

I do have a couple of questions. How did you attach the top, and just out of curiosity, why did you make it 34" tall?

thanks for sharing,

mike

Thanks for the comments! The table has worked out very nicely. I would have like to have drilled and bolted the top on but I opted to weld it, I made probably a dozen small welds on the underside here and there, I did make small welds with the thought of removing it down the road if I ever needed to. I had a nice stool and 34" to the top is what I came up with that would be a comfortable and usable height. The top was already cut, so I built the table around the piece that I found. Im still lacking a torch holder, ill get to that eventually. Heres a pic of my big table, its been really handy as well. If you would like measurements, ill hook you up! Thanks. Mike
